ТОКИО, 27 сен – РИА Новости. Японский грузовой космический корабль "Конотори-7" доставил в четверг на МКС пятитонный груз для жизнеобеспечения и проведения научных работ на борту станции, прямую трансляцию процесса стыковки вело японское аэрокосмическое агентство JAXA.

Беспилотный грузовик "Конотори-7" (HTV7) был запущен 23 сентября с космодрома Танэгасима в префектуре Кагосима. На МКС он перебросил капсулу для пробной отправки на землю образцов экспериментов, которые проводятся на борту станции.

Также "Конотори-7" доставил на станцию два микроспутника STARS-Me для эксперимента по созданию космического лифта.

Эти кубические спутники размером около десяти сантиметров будут запущены со станции и соединены стальным проводом, по которому будет двигаться небольшой "лифт" с камерой. Оборудование для этого было разработано японским аэрокосмическим агентством JAXA и университетом Сидзуоки.

A Japanese cargo ship loaded with more than 10,000 pounds of supplies and equipment, including a new set of solar array batteries, was captured by the International Space Station's robot arm early Thursday to wrap up a trouble-free rendezvous.

With station commander Drew Feustel and Serena Auñón-Chancellor operating the Canadian-built arm, the HTV-7 "Kounotori" cargo craft was captured at 7:34 a.m. EDT (GMT-4) as the two spacecraft were passing 251 miles above the northern Pacific Ocean.

"HTV capture is complete, the arm is safed. And I just want to say that we're delighted to see HTV-7 arrive at ISS," Feustel radioed flight controllers. "Thanks to the JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency) teams for working so hard to successfully launch this vehicle in spite of the recent challenges with hardware and weather."

"Thanks for the words," replied Japanese astronaut Akihiko Hoshide from Houston. "Congrats again on a successful capture of the seventh HTV bringing more batteries, (science) racks and other goodies to the International Space Station."

With the HTV-7 safely in hand, flight controllers at the Johnson Space Center were standing by to take over arm operations and remotely pull the cargo ship in for berthing at the Earth-facing port of the station's forward Harmony module.

The HTV's pressurized hold, the section accessible to the station crew, is loaded with 7,500 pounds of equipment and supplies, including more than 1,300 pounds of crew food, clothing, personal items, computer gear and spacewalk supplies, 2,800 pounds of station equipment and spare parts and 3,300 pounds of research equipment and material.

Mounted in the spacecraft's unpressurized cargo bay are six powerful lithium-ion batteries that will be installed at the base of the station's port-4 solar array segment. They will replace 12 aging nickel-hydrogen batteries that were launched with the arrays as original equipment in 2006.

Most of the space station's electrical power is generated by two huge sets of rotating solar arrays, two on the starboard, or right side of the lab's power truss and two on the left, or port side. The batteries deliver power when the station is in Earth's shadow and are recharged when the arrays are back in sunlight.

NASA is in the process of replacing all four sets of solar array batteries. The system originally used 12 batteries for each set of arrays but the replacement units pack twice the punch, so only six are needed per set.

The HTV-6 cargo ship delivered the first set of replacements in December 2016. They were installed on the starboard 4, or S4, solar array segment during two spacewalks in January 2017. The batteries carried up aboard HTV-7 will be install on the port 4, or P4, truss segment during two spacewalks next month.

NASA originally planned to install the new batteries this month, before Feustel and his two Soyuz MS-08 crewmates — vehicle commander Oleg Artemyev and Ricky Arnold — return to Earth next Thursday.

But the HTV-7 launch was delayed 12 days by bad weather and a technical issue and there is not enough time available to make the necessary spacewalk preparations before Feustel and his crewmates have to depart.

The Soyuz MS-08 crew is scheduled to land on the steppe of Kazakhstan at 7:45 a.m. Oct. 4, closing out a 196-day mission. Their station crewmates — Auñón-Chancellor, Soyuz MS-09 commander Sergey Prokopyev and European Space Agency astronaut Alexander Gerst — will have the station to themselves for one week before two fresh crew members arrive.

Soyuz MS-10 commander Alexey Ovchinin and NASA flight engineer Nick Hague are scheduled for launch from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on Oct. 11, arriving at the space lab later that day.

Successful berthing of the H-II Transfer Vehicle "KOUNOTORI7"
(HTV7) to the International Space Station (ISS)
September 28, 2018 (JST)

National Research and Development Agency
Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA)
The H-II Transfer Vehicle "KOUNOTORI7" (HTV7) started its final approach to the International Space Station (ISS), and was captured by the ISS robotic arm at 20:36 p.m. on September 27 (Japanese Standard Time, JST). Being captured and maneuvered by the robotic arm, the HTV7 was successfully berthed to the ISS at 3:08 a.m. on September 28 (JST).

Once after berthing of vehicle, the internal and external cargo will be unloaded by the on board crew.

Comment by JAXA PresidentSuccessful berthing of the H-II Transfer Vehicle
"KOUNOTORI7" (HTV7) to the International Space Station (ISS)
The H-II Transfer Vehicle, "KOUNOTORI7"(HTV7) launched by the H-IIB rocket No.7 from Tanegashima Space Center on September 23, 2018, has been berthed to the International Space Station (ISS).

Following KOUNOTORI6, KOUNOTORI7 transported the heaviest ISS cargo in the world which contains the newly designed ISS batteries using Japanese lithium-ion cells, materials required for the ISS operation such as experiment racks of National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and European Space Agency (ESA), and nano satellites ("CubeSats" ) for the Japanese Experiment Module "Kibo". I am very proud of the fact that KOUNOTORI7 successfully delivered these items to the ISS and meet expectations of international partners thanks to those who engaged in development of KOUNOTORI 7 and the team in charge of its operation.

JAXA is planning to demonstrate re-entry technology from the ISS by using small re-entry capsule for the first time in Japan and high-efficiency heat rejection technology which is going to be adapted to Engineering Test Satellite IX in Kibo. At the same time, JAXA will make best efforts to the operation of KOUNOTORI7 until undocking from the ISS and reentrying to the atmosphere.

Hatch open for #HTV7. At first ingress, crew has to wear protection gear, for the unlikely case of air contamination. Lots of new experiments for @ISS_research including the new @ESA Life Support System #LSR!

It's always fascinating to see a spacecraft approaching us, launched from Earth a few days ago, meeting us up here in the middle of nowhere at 28.000 km/h. Amazing technology. Congrats @JAXA_en for successfully starting the #HTV7 mission!

H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV)-7 Capture and Berthing:

Yesterday evening, Robotics Ground Controllers performed a survey of the Node 2 Nadir Active Common Berthing Mechanism (ACBM) sealing surface as required prior to HTV berthing. Today, the ISS Crew (Feustel, Auñón-Chancellor, Gerst) monitored the HTV-7 approach from the Cupola Robotic Workstation (RWS) and, at approximately 11:34 GMT, with Feustel at the controls, they successfully captured HTV using the SSRMS. Next, the Robotics Ground Controllers used the SSRMS to maneuver HTV-7 into position to support the inspection of the HTV-7 Passive CBM and then to maneuver the HTV-7 to and install it on the Node2 Nadir Active CBM at approximately 13:42 GMT. Node2 Nadir Active CBM was Ground commanded to capture and bolt the HTV-7 to the ISS. The Robotic Ground Controllers then released the HTV-7 and maneuvered the SSRMS to grapple the HTV-7 External Platform (EP). Here, HTV Berthing Camera System (HBCS) was checked out on both cameras and SSRMS is now providing heater power to the EP.


H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV)-7 Ingress:

Following a successful berthing by Houston Flight Controllers, the crew pressurized the Node 2 Nadir vestibule and preformed a leak check. Following the successful leak check, the crew outfitted the vestibule by removing the Center Disk Cover and HTV Hatch Thermal Blanket, mating power and data jumpers to HTV, installing IMV Supply jumpers, and installing closeout panels after removing the CBM Controller Panel Assembly. Ingress into HTV-7 was accomplished shortly thereafter; HTV Cargo Operations will begin tomorrow morning.
